Silver Dew On The Bluegrass Tonight - Hugo Duncan, Bob Wills & His Texas Playboys

The moon was softly shining on an old Kentucky home

The fragrance of magnolia filled the air

A lonely girl was writing to her sweetheart 'cross the foam

«May God protect you, darling, over there»

Silver dew on the blue grass tonight

How it shines in the moon’s silver light

Soldier boy, so far from me

How I wish that you could see

Silver dew on the blue grass tonight

Stars of gold on the old flag tonight

While you fight for a cause that is right

You will keep that flag on high

For those boys who had to die

Stars of gold on the old flag tonight

Silver dew on the blue grass tonight

While I pray you’ll come sage through the fight

Close your eyes and think of me

Then, my darling, you will see

Silver dew on the blue grass tonight
